That's pretty much the only time we ever do it. If we have family or friends over for maybe a fish fry, it's always outside. I know I posted about doing those squash blossoms the other day, and that was just a shallow fry in the wok, but I still hate having a deal with oil and all that.

I've really been trying to figure out other alternatives to get fried stuff, and our little air fryer seems to be the ticket. It's not even a huge one, and we got it for free from a neighbor, but I'm surprised at what I'm not able to make with it. I'm really tempted to upgrade and get a heavy-duty one, just not really sure what direction to go.

I don't think I want the tray, definitely front door with a couple of racks or something.

it comes w/ 1 tray i bought another, but tbh, if youre doing it to "fry" the other tray hinders the frying, b/c the way airfryers are supposed to work well is to go up and thru the tray, but if you have another tray in the way, then that just takes the hot air power away.

Sludig Sludig Japanese curry, aka golden curry, is my favorite. You can make it as spicy as you want, but in general it is just a very tasty savory stew. You can make it with any protein.

Sludig Sludig this is pretty much the base recipe I use. It's pretty standard but you can always adjust what other spices you want to add. I like a little bit of ground fennel just because I enjoy it, and even maybe a little bit of cinnamon or allspice. I forget what the blend of the garam masala has, but maybe it has those things in it, it's like an Indian version of Chinese five-spice, but you could also use the five spice too. Adams makes a Chipotle five spice that's out of this world but it's pretty zippy.

I also put green onions and maybe some bell pepper, and you can also make it with pork or even ground beef or diced up chuck roast something. The whole thing is literally just making a flavorful sauce kind of like doing a beef stroganoff or whatever the hell, except you're serving it over rice. Fresh lime at the end is essential along with the cilantro, I'm fresh basil is good too.

Just use what you got, as long as you got the spice rack, it's an easy and cheap one pot meal basically, or I guess two pots if you consider the rice.

Yesterday I made a rotisserie chicken in my air fryer for the first time. Gave it a good spice coating, cooked it for about an hour at 350 (175). Let it rest for an hour once it was cooked. After that, I took all the meat off the carcass and chopped it fine. Mixed it with diced green apple, some craisins, roasted garlic, a very few chunks of walnut, mayo, and a bunch of spices. It's a bloody delicious chicken salad. Brought it to a bbq and it was the first thing gone. It was really good and super easy. Spice up the chicken, it rotates itself in the air fryer, then just spice and go.

I think it's just a roasted chicken. I would be curious whether you can really tell the difference between a rotisserie chicken and a regular roasted one in a blind taste test though.

Only obstacle, my wife is sick and hates cilantro, I love it.
